Seth Rogan (is he one of the guys behind South Park?) created this farce about talking foods and their belief that life outside the supermarket is going to be pure heaven. Then a jar of honey mustard is returned to the store ("I wanted regular mustard") and he informs the rest of the foods that "the gods" kill and eat the foods once they leave the store.
Yeah. It's that dumb. Voices of Salma Hayek, Edward Norton, Kristen Wiig, James Franco, Bill Hader, Jonah Hill and a couple other recognizable actors lend credibility to what is otherwise relentlessly juvenile (every third word is "fuck."). There's sociopolitical commentary besides the judeochristian theology: a bagel (with Woody Allen's voice) fights with some kind of Arabic flatbread until they discover they both like hummus. A taco turns lesbo. A piece of gum is Steven Hawking. A toilet paper roll says the foods have it easy.
I need to get out more.
